Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
We present evidence for the wavelength dependence of the directionality of light reflected from cone receptor cells (optical Stiles-Crawford effect): Blue light is more directional than red. According to the waveguide-scattering model of Marcos et al. [J. Opt. Soc. Am. A15, 2012 (1998)], directionality is the sum of a waveguide component and a scattering component. The latter is proportional to 1 over wavelength squared, and it is related to the row-to-row spacing of the cone lattice. Our results allow a firm confirmation of Marcos et al.'s theory. For a 1.9-deg foveal area, group mean (n = 18) cone spacing was 3.42 μm, in good agreement with anatomical data. Group mean waveguide directionality was 0.077 mm. © 2003 Optical Society of America.
